Its Starring Shia LaBeouf, Rosie Huntingdon-Whiteley, Josh Duhamel, John Turturro, Tyrese Gibson, Patrick Dempsey, Kevin Dunn, Julie White, John Malkovich, Frances McDormand, Lester Speight, Alan Tudyk, Ken Jeong & Glenn Morshower.

THE REVIEW:
 I went into the screening of this film unprepared as I didn’t bring along with me any food or drink. This is one LONG (as you will find out) Sci fi action movie that’s huge in production and rich in entertainment. 

Fans will love every moment of this latest instalment as much as I did. If there was a manual of how to make a sequel of such magnitude that Transformers series is then this would be the perfect example. From the acting to the Autobots doing some major ass kicking, this film single handedly shows off CGI at its peak. The special effects alone of these machines are quality good enough for anyone’s money.

The storyline is new & interesting because of how they incorporated the moon landing to be more than what we had been told before hand. The characters have increased (lots more people involved), and with the scale enlarged this is just fun times at the cinema. It’s not the best script in the world and it does have those cheesy moments but it fitted in movie so I don’t think anyone will mind. The lead actor gives his very emotional (mostly anger lol) performance everything and it he shows off his action attributes perfectly. The machines are bashing the hell out of each other in some pretty awesome fight scenes that builds a landmark bridge for 3D films and top that all off there one very hot blonde heroine as fierce & likeable as Fox. As beautiful as Carly (Whiteley) looks in the film I didn't feel that Mrs Fox was replaced. (more like a substitute)

This is another summer must watch that takes us on an emotional ride all the way to the end in a Handicap match (2 on 1) Humans & Autobots vs. The Decepticons. Director Bay & Producer Steven Spielberg have done a beautiful job, and the visuals are the proof of this pudding. This is an impressive way to end a Trilogy. Everyone will leave the cinema smiling. (well mostly the boys/men)
OVERALL: 100% QUALITY ENTERTAINMENT.
 STAR RATINGS OUT OF 5:  5
